The tly ash of small size generated in the combustion of coal can be transported over long distances from the stack. This particulate matter contains trace elements which can be used as tracers of air pollution. Thirty eight soil samples wem collected in sn area where the plume from the power plant touches the ground. The analysis of As were carried out by hydride-generation/at. absorption spectrometry.

The leakage of combustible fluids into the lagging of pipework in the orocess ennineerinn industrv can be verv haxardous because of the Hcreased r&idence~time for-oxidation as the liquid resides in the porous medium and also the substantially modified heat and mass transfer rates when compared with ignition at hot surfaces. The exothermic reaction can lead to ignition or at least severe self-heating with the consequent damage of i ework, etc. Experiments have been performed to simulate this haxardp+ll e thermal behaviour of a number of combustible liquids placed in porous material has been monitored and evidence is presented in this work that self-heating can indeed take place.
